Getting candid in his first interview since his anti-Semitic rantings cost him his job and reputation, John Galliano speaks with Vanity Fair's Ingrid Sischy about his drug addiction, his personal demons, and the night at the Paris cafe that changed everything.

Recalling the infamous night in 2010, John admitted:

"It’s the worst thing I have said in my life, but I didn’t mean it. . . . I have been trying to find out why that anger was directed at this race. I now realize I was so f***ing angry and so discontent with myself that I just said the most spiteful thing I could."

"Perhaps Nicolas wants to have his own label, which is not a bad idea. And it would not be a bad idea if somebody such as Bernard Arnault would invest in a new label because there are so many old labels [within LVMH]."

It was already suggested that both of these things would happen, but maybe with Unkle Karl behind the idea it will gain more steam.

"If I get a request for something, there aren't two possible answers. First I get an email, then a phone call from someone at Vogue, and now I don't even bother to say no - I know the next call is from her."
